An email from admin 'hub could be featured' does that mean it will not be featured. Thanks
When I got those emails, my email went on to tell me what I could do by way of editing, changing, etc., something that the editors caught that would cause my hub to be less than great.
Read your email toward the rest of it.
That means it is not Featured right now.
In HubPages jargon, "featured" just means "normal". If your article is not Featured, it means "invisible" - a special tag is attached to it, telling Google and other search engines to ignore it, because it hasn't passed HP's quality assessment.
If a Hub is not Featured (we also say, "unfeatured"), then you can still see it, and you can send a link to your friends or post a link on your Facebook page. But that's all. It won't make money.
Oh, thanks Marisa its been awhile just updating hubs etc
Again thanks
@literal . . .If I told you something incorrect, I apologize. I do not claim to know everything there is about or on HubPages. I was merely wanting to help.

Grammar is checked, titles tweaked, content is solid as its in the same vein as my other articles. Do you think this could be it?...

I have an article on Artist Communities in National Parks. It is the same quality as other hubs on similar topics but wasn't featured. I edited, nothing, then added a list of the 50 some odd programs and it was featured. For about 3 hours. Then despite not being changed again and...

Hi its Louise again, I was wondering if anyone knew how to edit your hubs so that they can be featured and how often you edit them. I am trying to make blogging into a part time job or full time job but don't know how to get paid doing so and I am a horrible editor of my own stuff. ...

Slowly but surely more and more of my hubs are getting unfeatured. Does not really matter what I do, the result is always the same. Is it time to leave hubpages once each and ever one of my hub is unfeatured?
